  Gotta love this one, Tony. You'd probably be surprised as to how many things I see in the picture that could be used in a restoration process. I'm not at all sure what can be done for you.

  I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

  I tried to check its KBB value, didn't come up with anything.
  
  Nice shot anyway!:lol

  Very nice shot, I like "faded splendor" shots.

  Thanks for the comments, guys.
  
  Why is it, though, we shoot rusty wrecks and exotic cars
  at a Concours d'Elegance, but never a photograph of a
  "K" car? Where are the shots of the Dodge Aries and
  the Plymouth Valiant?
  
  At one time, I owned a mustard-colored Chrysler LeBaron
  convertible that my children named "The Manila Envelope'.

  See....I told you I wasn't sure what could be done for you.:D

  I love this kind of shooting opportunity. I don't come upon it enough! Glad you did!
  
  Lots of shooting options with this!

  Probably for the same reason we don't wear powder blue leisure suits, disco dance, or watch
  The Love Boat on Saturday nights...
  
  Very nicely done image.

  I thought I had one of those too, but this is a Chrysler TC by Maserati...
